FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND have announced that they have parted ways with their drummer Ryan Richards, who had been with the band since 2002. Replacing him is former RISE TO REMAIN drummer Pat Lundy.
About his departure, Richards clarifies:
After ten wonderful, enriching, emotional and fascinating years being a part of Funeral for a Friend – I’ve decided to hang up my drum sticks. I’ve always put music first in my life – but the time has come now for my family to take the top spot, after patiently waiting and supporting me for the last 10 years and more. I’m stoked to have my good friend Pat Lundy step into my vacant drumstool. There’s not a better drummer than Pat for the job.
As reported a while ago, the band has been busy recording a new album.
